Looking for an inspiring talk at your event?

If you're interested in learning about Inversion of Control through Compound Components in software design, then this talk is perfect for you! By using React.js as an example, Dave will show you how to create scalable and maintainable components (for design systems) that cater to various requirements the developers who use them have. Additionally, he'll discuss the challenges of building components that meet the needs of many developers and demonstrate how this technique can help you build sustainable components that stand the test of time. Throughout the talk, you'll gain practical advice and real-world examples for implementing Inversion of Control and Compound Components in your own projects, as well as a better understanding of how these concepts can benefit building better software.

Jurgen Beliën previously used NearlyJS to write an interface for a quantum computer. In this talk he explains how a parser works and how you can use it to write your own language or parse short strings (e.g. convert "3h 10m" to something your code can understand).

TensorFlow.js makes machine learning incredibly accessible by bringing it to the browser. Front-end developers can use this to create amazing applications. In this talk, we’ll take a look at TensorFlow.js in combination with MobileNet, a lightweight deep neural network computer vision model perfect for the “low-powered” devices browsers often run on, bringing machine learning capabilities to everybody. We’ll not just have a look at how you can make this work, but will even train the dataset on the fly using transfer learning.

Use stuff that you can reuse and build stuff that other people can reuse

Abbe Keultjes is a big fan of functional programming. In this talk he explains step by step how to refactor some code to become functional.

Cross platform development is hard. Each platform as it's own implementation of an API and you end up with separate apps for each platform. Multiple frameworks try to fix this issue by creating an abstract between the platform and the application. Browser vendors are doing the same and it's called Project Fugu. In this talk I explain what it is and what it isn't.

React Server Components is an experimental feature being developed by the React team at Facebook. It aims to allow developers to build components that can be rendered on the server and sent over the network to be hydrated on the client side. This approach is different from traditional client-side rendering, where the entire component tree is sent to the client and rendered there. The motivation behind React Server Components is to improve the performance of server-side rendering (SSR) by reducing the amount of JavaScript that needs to be sent to the client. With React Server Components, only the necessary components and data are transmitted, resulting in smaller and faster initial page loads.

Remix is a great framework to build robust, progressively enhanced and interactive web apps! Dave will take you on a fun journey on how he created a multi-user and real-time progressive web app. But be aware, there is a guest list and not every solution is invited to join the party!
